soaring guitar Great guitar playing - also, I liked the slow , draggy (druggy) feel to the song - like 'A Forest' on valium. Vox are a little flat though ... Check out my latest song called Deeper (w/t Racerat)

soaring guitar Thanks! The pace is deliberate as I wanted kind of a funereal feel to it given that some wiseguy politician has just wasted the world. --- CD: Illusion of Gravity Check out my latest song called It's For You w/Mystery Lady

Post the lyrics! Very Alan Parsons, into the 21st century. Sweet guitar work on this track! The imagery is compelling and the atmosphere suits the forward-looking nature of the story. It seems to me that the drums and other instruments could come up in the mix a bit, as they are faint compared to the guitar, which is rockin'! Check out my latest song called Dive!

Heavy! I like this sort of emotive guitar screaming. It's pretty effective in communicating your feelings. The song is quite all right too. Just some comments about the production: the drums seems to go in and out. It's much louder and brighter on the breaks. And it sounds very thin during the synth and vocal passages. Weird. 2: I'm not sure that I care much for that lead synth, but let's consider that a matter of taste. 3: Your bass part is a bit timid. Did you play it yourself?

Heavy! I appreciate the critique and you're definitely right about the bass. It wasn't long after this that I went out to get a real bass because I was so tired of doing pseudo-bass lines on the keyboard. I haven't had much time to play it but I know already that I'll never use the keys as a bass again! By the way, it's an Ibanez GSR-100 and I'm well satisfied with the value. --- Illusion of Gravity Web site Check out my latest song called It's For You w/Mystery Lady

Heavy! About keyboard bass: in a previous incarnation I played the bass on <a href="http://www.macjams.com/song/10470">this tune</a> and that's keyboarded.... Enjoy. Check out my latest song called Pipe Spring at Dusk

Strong guitar solos... The guitar solo section is definitely the strength of this song. The backing instruments are strong but leave room, the drums are dynamic without getting in the way, no instruments are competing, and your playing is very powerful. The solo sections really work. The drums seem to go into a different dimension after the solo where the square-wave synth line enters, which I think hurts your rhythm section. I agree that the part should change, but the dynamic level change is too severe to my ears. It's hard for you to match your strength as a guitarist with your strength as a vocalist. I would recommend you write another killer piece like this and get someone to sing it, so your strength and that of the vocalist both contribute to the power of the song. I would have gone with a loop with the snare hitting on 2 & 4 for the drums on the last solo section, maybe starting about halfway through, to give it the highest dynamic level of all your solos; used a stronger rhythm for the rhythm guitar part as the solo progresses; and held the last chord out much longer. All these would have blasted this strong song off to another level. As it is, it's very strong, very powerful. Check out my latest song called Just As It Is

Strong guitar solos... Thanks very much for the critique. There's a lot of food for thought in it and I'll definitely keep it in mind. Thanks again. --- My Duck Soup Check out my latest song called It's For You w/Mystery Lady

guitar undermines immediate affinities how about the crimean war? at first i heard the composition informed by legendary pink dots and a touch of coil but soon a distinct voice took over. i love the guitar but wouldn't mind it pulled back ever so slightly.

Powerful Good use of tension notes here; it creates a sense of movement and dynamic. Great guitar tone and playing, and the rhythm held tight. I agree with Futz regarding the emphasis on 2 and 4. The drums kept switching to a 2-4 rhythm as part of the drum fill, and it gave the piece a stop-and-go feel. That's not to say it was bad, but rather utilizing that trick once, and then keeping with it, surely would take this piece to the next level. All in all I thought it was a strong and powerful piece. Thanks for posting. Check out my latest song called Long Ago
